I spoke to NBC about how media coverage of the Cornell case has impacted survivors. The big takeaway? This could be a moment that hurts a lot of people or heals a lot of people, depending on whether these stories result in systemic change.

For sexual assault survivors, the Cornell case can feel both infuriating and empowering.

In the Cornell and Hockey Canada cases, institutional failure is a common thread
There are many similarities between the two cases, both in terms of the actual incidents and the way they were handled by officials

So much respect for this, and the framing. ABC, the right wing version of Progress Toronto, has used health care workers/hospitals as reason to rip them out. This puts a lie to that (and on University ambulances can bypass cars in the wide bikelanes if needed). So many lies.

Mathematicians and biologists used ChatGPT and Claude for their work only for those companies to later claim AI had discovered solutions to unsolved problems similar to their work. The concern that frontier labs will use your data to compete with you is sounding more like fact than fiction.
